My husband and I were raised in Catholic families in Colombia, and from an early age our parents taught us the fundamental moral principles of the Catholic religion. But on April of 1989, when we were born again, we began to understand the true meaning of being a Christian and since then our relationship with God has become more personal. Since then we began to write. José Joaquin wrote reflections about the love of God and messages of hope for humanity, and I wrote wise advice for all families everywhere.

LOVE'S MADNESS

 We want to go slowly,

gazing towards the infinite,

the future that is looking towards us,

towards eternity, contemplating

all of the Lord's, as if there were nothing more.

 

Oh! Let me, Father,

surrender before your divine presence,

for with great humility I approach your altar.

 

We are, blessed Father,

eager for your friendship,

I would like to draw near

with all the souls of the world,

and I still want more,

these longings for love,

I cannot satisfy.

 

But the most beautiful thing,

is what You give.

 

Such precious friendship

is that of the Lord,

we wouldn't exchange it for anyone

because there can be no better.

 

You are the sun of our lives

and also the sun of eternity,

what a precious gift

that no one can give.

 

In Your Holy Presence we are

filled with happiness,

knowing that we are

with the Lord of Heaven and Earth

and all that is.

 

It would be impossible to desire more.

 

Blessed Lord, take me or take us to Yourself,

without any conditions.

 

Sincerely,

José Joaquin Agudelo G.
